Senior Traveling Superintendent
Job Description
Job Description
Position Summary
The Senior Superintendent provides advanced field leadership for complex, multi-phase, or high-risk Marian Construction projects and is accountable for stabilizing execution across multiple scopes, teams, and phases of work. This role exists to ensure predictable delivery under complexity, prevent repeat failures, and lead recovery when execution is threatened.
The Senior Superintendent produces results by enforcing disciplined planning and inspection behaviors, coordinating complex sequencing, mentoring Superintendents and Foremen, removing constraints that exceed single-project authority, and escalating risks before they impact outcomes. This role is not a “super-project superintendent.” Crews and trade partners execute the work; the Senior Superintendent leads through standards, inspection, coaching, and accountability.
The Senior Superintendent may oversee one large complex project or multiple projects concurrently and serves as a stabilizing force when execution risk is elevated.
This position will be a Traveling Superintendent. The first project will be based in Evansville, IN. Future projects may be located in IN, KY or OH. A Traveling Superintendent will be provided lodging, vehicle & food allowances.

- Extensive experience as a Project Superintendent on complex or multi-phase projects.
- Demonstrated ability to lead under pressure and stabilize execution.
- Strong working knowledge of construction sequencing, safety regulations, and quality systems.

- Advanced ability to plan ahead, identify systemic risks, and remove constraints.
- Strong communication, leadership presence, and decision-making skills.
